TIME SERIES ANALYSES OF WATER AND SEDIMENT DISCHARGES Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • The techniques of time series analysis applied to studies of long-term water and sediment discharges for four stations of the Rio Grande show that cyclic models can account for less than 25 percent of the variance in the water series and 15 percent in the sediment series. The annual cycles of water discharge and sediment discharge are significantly correlated, with systematic variations from station to station resulting from erratic tributary inflow and variable irrigation demands. 1968 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
